it's a testing time for the prime star wars fa ns minister. he is facing a rebellion is just the worst possible news. star wars fans across the globe will be waking up to this terrible news from some of his own mps, when the that dave has passed away. you met house of commons notes on his new three tier restrictions in england him,| that dave has passed away. you met him, i know, a number of times. what on tuesday. so last night he wrote was he like? he was always very to his conservative colleagues with a new formula to try to shrink the happy to celebrate his role in the size of the revolt. in his letter, film? a very, very generous guy. one he promised that if mps back him of the things about being a star this week he will give them a new wa rs of the things about being a star wars fan is that most of the actors vote on the restrictions onjanuary 27. if he loses that a vote, and the who played parts in the star wars movies are very accessible, and restrictions will and on february three. and he says a review of david was probably top of that tree. restrictions next month means some areas could come out of tier three he loved meeting the fans, he loved travelling the world and going to by december 19, but that'll still on the evidence. and the newly conventions, and just signing appointed ministerfor autographs, posing for photographs, the evidence. and the newly appointed minister for vaccines had this message for any conservative mp thinking of rebelling. if we work and talking about his role in the together we can very quickly move movie. if i mayjust tell you one from the tier system to coming down quick story, i was lucky enough to those tiers, two tier two and tier work with dave at a convention in liverpool. i took into a well restau ra nt one, with mass testing. the prime liverpool. i took into a well restaurant for dinner. and i called minister is also offering a fortnightly review of the tiers, but a taxi, but had to send it away

has he done enough to win over the again because of the number of rebels? one of them told the bbc he people in the restaurants that wa nted people in the restaurants that wanted to stop him for an autograph wasn't impressed. we asked for a lot ora wanted to stop him for an autograph of information and that letter or a photograph, and the taxi guy doesn't contain that information, so must we get it between now and said, you know, i've got to go, and away he went. neil, the legacy, i tuesday, it doesn't change anything, i'm afraid. boris johnson wants to guess, that we are a thing on is avoid relying on labour both to get perhaps best illustrated by the his restrictions through the house of commons. they are asking for more wonderful backdrop behind you, and help for the worst affected areas. the prime minister says he wants to squeeze the disease, but first the range of memorabilia. talk to us you'll have to squeeze the rebellion about your favourites? my favourite in his own ranks. iain watson, bbc news. the government has secured another has got to be the very first figure two million doses of the coronavirus of darth vader but they made back in vaccine from the us, which proved 95% effective after trials. 1978, but since then, you know, you the uk now has 7 millionjabs on order from the american company can get a three inch orfour inch or moderna. if the vaccine is approved, five inch or seven inch, even a doses could be delivered by next spring. full—sized figure of darth vader. he the uk has called on the was the most iconic villain in movie european union to bring "fresh thinking" to post—brexit trade talks, which downing street says history, and so collectors across could end this week. the eu's chief negotiator, the board will have some form of michel barnier, has been in london this weekend for talks with his uk counterpart, darth vaderfigure in but big differences remain overfair the board will have some form of darth vader figure in their collection. i love the story that he competition and fishing.

the transition period was collection. i love the story that he wa s offe re d collection. i love the story that he was offered chewbacca, wasn't he, as well as darth vader? i think george ends in five weeks. lucas effectively said, take your pick. and as we know, he was picked police patrols will be stepped up, for his physical stature rather and there will be greater surveillance using drones and radar than, necessarily, his acting on french beaches to stop migrants abilities. his voice was ultimately crossing the channel to england. dumped over by james abilities. his voice was ultimately dumped over byjames earljones. but it comes after the uk and france he absolutely identified that darth reached a new agreement to double vader would be the one for what he the number of officers. was remembered for, for all time? yes, as you rightly say, he was the home office did not say how many offered both roles and he went more officers would be deployed. straight for the villain because he primary school pupils knew that that would be the one that across scotland will get free meals everybody would identify with. and all year round if the snp wins next may's election. the promise was made by deputy first ministerjohn swinney there is another story as well, i at the party's annual conference. our political correspondent believe, that critical moment, and i don't think this is spoiling anything for anybody at this stage, nick eardley has more. all these years on, but wendy reveal the pandemic and marcus rashford's happens, when darth vader reveals to luke skywalker, i am your father, campaign to end child poverty have apparently the first time they seen campaign to end child poverty have filmed that, because dave was doing, seen the free school meals debate rise up the political agenda. in obviously, the voice of data later england, after pressure, the when they were filming it, he gave a government has promised £400 million different line. so nobody in the to help disadvantaged children and film production knew that line was

theirfamilies. to help disadvantaged children and then going to be doubled over with their families. scotland is to help disadvantaged children and theirfamilies. scotland is now set to meet big changes, would the snp saying if it wins power again, or then going to be doubled over with the "father" line byjames earl jones. yeah, not many people on the primary school pupils will be set new data. apparently mark hamill entitled to free breakfast and lunch all year round, including in the was told what the real line would school holidays. —— all primary be, so that he could throw out a school holidays. —— all primary proper reaction to it. but dave school pupils. we want every child didn't know anything about it to have every chance to learn every minute of every school day, starting whatsoever. he was acting a from the moment they arrive in class. a child arriving at school com pletely whatsoever. he was acting a hungry cannot learn as well as they completely different line, and was then completely shocked later when should. the new scheme is due to he saw the finished movie. come in from 2022. it will cost about a quarter of a year. the snp's then completely shocked later when he saw the finished movielj then completely shocked later when he saw the finished movie. i am mesmerised, neil, watching our conversation with the backdrop conference comes at a time when behind you and whether it is one of support for independence is, according to polls, on the rise. those snazzy things that you put up behind zoom hall, or whether it is policies like this one help the your actual front room and party draw a distinction with collection. could you talk us westminster. but with independence through a bit of what we can see? on the agenda, political opponents have accused the snp of being yeah, no, it isn't a background. this is my collection room. it is distracted when everyone should be what used to be the garage. i have focused on the pandemic. been collecting star wars toys for family and colleagues have paid

tribute to the two people killed in the london bridge terror attack, 43 years now, and this is a which happened a year ago today. jack merritt, who was 25, and 23—year—old saskia jones, were stabbed by a convicted terrorist at a prisoner life—sized charge are banks ——jar rehabilitation event. in a statement, saskia's mother michelle thanked those who have supported the family jar binks, who as you can see, is holding a big figure of darth vader. through a difficult 12 months. all around me i've got figures and spaceships that i've collected over labour says peak rail fares should be suspended over christmas, the last number of years. a to reduce the risk of overcrowding wonderful collection. we really during off—peak periods. a surge in journeys is expected appreciate your reflections. thank when restrictions on family visits you. thank you. are temporarily eased between the 23rd and 27th of december. i still, even when i see images, as the party is calling on the transport secretary we saw just that of to present a travel plan i still, even when i see images, as we sawjust that of darth vader, he still gives me the collie wobbles. to parliament tomorrow. you could have done that role, john the actor who played darth vader watson. no, sorry. "i am your in the star wars trilogy has died at the age of 85. dave prowse passed away father". ew, that would be weird. after a short illness. could you do the whole sports he'll be remembered for being bulletin and the tone of voice?|j the man behind the mask of one bulletin and the tone of voice?” wouldn't want to put people of film history's most iconic throughout this i really wouldn't. characters in a career spanning over we got loads coming up this morning, 50 years, as lizo mzimba reports. boxing, of course, if anybody tuned in the early hours, mike tyson in action after 15 years out of the ring. i won't give away the results

but we will bring it up later on. yesterday's premier league and fa at six foot six with a towering cup action to come too, but england are into the final of rugby union's autumn nations cup figure, dave prowse was physically after beating rivals wales perfect for the part of darth vader. yesterday 24—13 in lanelli. the visitors did go behind early but quickly hit back through centre in the original star wars trilogy in henry slade. and they pulled too far ahead the 19705 and 19805. in the second half thanks in the original star wars trilogy in the 1970s and 1980s. looks like you to owen farrell's kicking and this two need a lesson in cro55ing the 1970s and 1980s. looks like you two need a lesson in crossing the road. at the same time, he was also try from mako vunipola. the face of road safety, presenting videos and visiting thousand5 it means england will play france the face of road safety, presenting videos and visiting thousands of in the final at twickenham next school5 videos and visiting thousands of schools as the green cro55 code man. saturday, a match which should see we will be there when you cross the 2,000 fans inside the stadium. road, so always use the green cross no easy match though against france, code. it is very interesting, a side regarded as one of the best because when i became darth vader, in world rugby at the moment. they thrashed italy 36—5. when the star war5 film came out, i a result which denied scotland the chance to make almost got the sack from the next weekend's final. government because they thought that the try of the weekend though came my images darth vader would have a in exeter‘s win over bath in the premiership. detrimental effect on my image is when exeter went for a cross—field the cross code man. —— green cro55 kick, look at the next kick code man. a champion weightlifter, from tom o'flaherty on the volley — then running almost half the length he eventually tried acting, playing of the pitch to score. a succession of small role5, including one in andy cooper's it was a brilliant piece of skill to send the ball downfield to chase onto. cla55ic a clockwork orange, sharing no wonder they're champions scenes with malcolm mcdowell.

and then came the role of the playing like that. physically imposing darth vader. he had the bulk, he had to be built, liverpool are top of but he also had a bristol accent. the premier league but it's jurgen klopp's frustration in a postmatch interview that's generating headlines. having taken the lead at brighton, sta rt diogo jota continuing his but he also had a bristol accent. start tearing the ship apart piece brilliant scoring run. by piece until you found tho5e tapes. i want them alive! you are pa rt tapes. i want them alive! you are part of the rebel alliance and a they were pegged back in the 90th traitor. take her away! when the minute after brighton were awarded a penalty for this challenge. first star wars film came out he there was a lot of debate about it, but pascal gross scored found that his dialogue had been to make it1—1. replaced with the burning tone5 and afterjames milner picked up found that his dialogue had been replaced with the burning tones of james earljone5. an injury in the match, klopp's irritation boiled over replaced with the burning tones of james earljones. i have having repeatedly spoken out replaced with the burning tones of james earl jones. i have traced the rebel spies to her. now she is my against champions league clubs being made to play in the saturday only link to finding their secret lunchtime kick off, as it doesnt give players enough rest base. he may never have been the after playing on a wednesday. voice behind the villain, but the man behind the mask of darth vader i'm obviously silly enough to fall in that trap, i5 man behind the mask of darth vader is how he will always be remembered. now he has the headlines he wanted, and, but actually, it's like it is, and for so many, he played the most chorley pulled off the biggest win iconic cinema villain ever seen. in their 137—year history by knocking peterborough out of the fa cup to reach the third round for the first time. dave prowse, who has died at the age having already beaten wigan, of 85. they came from behind to stun he's often called the world's the league one side,

beast on the move. if you were watching yesterday, just nine months ago, you'll remember we showed you a valuable lesson in the importance of timing, they spotted the initial indications when it comes to a grand christmas light switch—on ceremony. that a drug usually used to treat four, three, two, one... rheumatoid arthritis could have potential. that was officials in bridgwater, and it turns out they were right! in somerset, being a bit slow baricitinib has received fda with their ceremonial plunger. emergency approval in the us well, it turns out this kind for those who are hospitalised of blunder happens more often and on oxygen or need ventilation. in a trial of 1000 seriously ill than you think. patients, the medicine, combined with anti—viral remdesivir, was shown to help reduce coronavirus deaths by nearly 3%. there was also a 5% reduction in those needing ventilation, happy christmas! and on average, hospital stays the mayor of hertford was also were reduced by a day. caught out by a timings crisis. good luck to all the mayors switching on their christmas lights this week. the company behind this uses ai to crunch massive amounts of data, beyond what would be humanly iam sure i am sure there won't be a single possible, to understand the mechanisms of disease, camera phone pointed in your as well as the properties direction. it is that thing, do we of already approved drugs. go on one, or do we go on zero? or do wejust go on one, or do we go on zero? or do we just make sure we look at the

quy do we just make sure we look at the guy with the plunger? the added quirk is of course that the people who end up being the butt of the joke don't know it has happened, now, a lot of people were looking because it is behind them, and then at virals, anti—virals, and how they might potentially you throw in the face coverings treat the disease. we looked at it from about having to wear and it is a completely different way. gloriously absurd. kudos to all fake we said, "what are the other types of approved drugs that might inhibit plunger makers out there who clearly the progression of that disease have their work cut out this time of in the body?" year. but also, the true pressure so we surfaced a number of drugs, for the people off camera, who have and then we did some experimentation based on that further research. got the light switch in their hands. that is where the real pressure is. and then we came up with this one drug that we think is best suited. i think they might be looking at the it has both anti—inflammatory quy i think they might be looking at the guy with the plunger, but anyway. i think they might be looking at the guy with the plunger, but anywaym in doubt, just leave it. properties as well as the ability to stop what's called endocytosis, which is what enables let's take a look at the virus to enter the lungs, today's front pages. which is the most potentially the telegraph leads on the letter that borisjohnson has dangerous outcome written to mp5. he says the new tier system could end injust nine weeks, with the commons able to vote again of the coronavirus. on the restrictions in late january. does anybody really think it will end injust nine weeks? anyway, in theory it is possible. a brilliant use of a! there. and baroness joanna shields, borisjohnson's letter is described ceo of benevolentai, by the sunday times as "a sign is the first of many women in tech of disarray in downing street." featuring on this week's show. every year, the bbc 100 women project celebrates women from all walks of life and highlights their stories. it comes after a growing number and as part of that,

whole thing i'm trying to work out what you are doing and there are i'm not welcome. cameras everywhere. but we would all like to see it, wouldn't we? louise, obviously terribly nervous before i'm just one of the few presenting the nation's weather girls on my course. and throughout pretty every day. when on tenterhooks to much my entire education, hear what you have to say, louise! i've been put in situations where the guys have behaved a bit like they're better than everyone else. it kind of makes the prospects of being one of the women in the tech industry not only scary, bit nervous this forecast because but kind of terrifying at times. the weather is a bit grey, i am at matching the weather. darla for should i present myself a little bit differently to fit in that male atmosphere? just be yourself. many, i'm afraid, throughout the day you are who you are, and you should be proud of that. today. some glorious sunshine yesterday and as you can see in so, you know, don't feel like you have to fit in a particular mould, or even worse, a male mould, just to get the job. scotland, clear skies which have allowed the two bridges to fall and i think, you know, first and foremost, like i always say, away. at the moment they are down i think capability should speak for itself, where i think two minus five degrees. elsewhere, personality is another thing altogether. so, you know, let your personality the cloud around, acting like a blanket in st marys and the isles of scilly, 12 degrees at the moment. a milder start for most of us despite shine, i think that's important. those clear skies in the far north—east. at least that is where you can choose to try to change the best of the sunshine is likely yourself to fit in, to be in the north—east of scotland. but that is costly. over time, that's going to end up wearing on you pretty hard

elsewhere, pretty grey. maybe the because you're going to be odd spot or two because of —— of a completely different person at work. drizzle coming out of the thick you deserve better than that. cloud in places was top by the you deserve a company who can see you for you are, value you for who you are and support middle of the afternoon, you might you in that. see brighter skies if you are lucky enough. averages on the mild side. and so if you get to a company that has that "bro—grammer" culture who's demanding that of you, skip it. we have lost the cold frosty field, if you are having trouble finding 8- 12 we have lost the cold frosty field, 8— 12 degrees the hi. as we go a job with an ml background, let me know, i have many for you. through the night, again we keep the cloud with us but there is a weather front putting into the north—west and that will bring some cloud and when we get to university, it's kind rain as we go through the night. it of expected from us to fail. and when we don't, people automatically assume that we have means that along western fringes, it probably had inappropriate relations with our superiors or professors or our tas. generally won't be a cold night with all the cloud around. starting on that needs to be called out. monday with rain and that will spread slowly south and west and we you need to find somebody in a leadership position that can as we go down to the south—east you can share the concerns with, corner of the heaviest of the rain and you need to rely on others. across western coastal fringes which and i have had in earlier times thenit across western coastal fringes which then it moves its way into north in my career where i've had difficult situations, wales, down through the midlands, arriving into london by the end of the day but as i say, light and patchy by then and bright and breezy where sometimes i might not be able following on behind, the wind

strengthening as the front comes through. this top temperature is to approach the manager, 8-12 the through. this top temperature is in your case, you know, 8—12 the hi. as you move out of the professor or the lecturer. and so i've gone around and tried wednesday into tuesday, we see the weather front diving steadily to find somebody else to be there. but i think it's very important that, post—university, southwards and the winds will change post—studying, that you place yourself in a situation where you are able to thrive, back to a northerly direction which means we will see colder air for a where you are able to feel confident in the work that you're doing. time starting to kick in across the lara: but getting the job country and certainly across the is just the first hurdle. bias in the workplace north it means that we could comes in many forms, potentially start off tuesday and both race and gender morning on a frosty note yet again, can introduce challenges. hopefully with some sunshine coming we are meeting a new client through, but the frost sitting for the first time, and he walked into the room and he just started across the north, clouding over out addressing the oldest—looking male towards the west during the day on in the room at the time. tuesday so the best of any dry or and what i've learned is that, bright weather looks likely to be eventually, if you actually focus, just cut out the noise, the further east you are. the and just focus at really becoming northerly wind making it feel pretty good at what you do, eventually, i think, in the long run, that will prove nippy on exposed coasts. top temperature is generally on tuesday around 6— 10 degrees. it looks itself and show itself. likely as go through the week ahead it is going to turn a little more u nsettled it is going to turn a little more unsettled with low pressure dominating the story. not only i would really like to know how it is to be a minority u nsettled dominating the story. not only in tech where you are, unsettled but particularly colder or to be a mother in tech, and fresher. thank you, louise. and what challenges you have faced.

while i'm not a mother in tech, i'm a minority in tech, speak to you later on. and i can touch on that some. i'll be really honest, it's a challenge sometimes, you know? now for sport. i should mention we there was a while where will talk more about mike tyson. the i was the only black woman in my building because i'm an engineer. and it can get isolating. rapper snoop dog was there to give a bit of a preamble and he was doing a it's super crucial to be able to find community outside of work. bit of a preamble and he was doing a bit of a preamble and he was doing a so, right now, i have a very bit of commentary as well. i think strong network full the american network. he said it was of women from many races, like watching two uncles fight at a and we connect quite frequently. you know, we'rejust sounding barbecue which i'm not sure you are meant to say when you are trying to sell a big fight. boards for one another. meant to say when you are trying to sella big fight. mike meant to say when you are trying to sell a big fight. mike tyson makes his return to the ring but i think my dream is to work at a big it was a fair reflection of the tech company in the uk or in the us and also fight. maybe it is the affection you to have a big family, too. have towards them. you don't really you can absolutely do that. wa nt have towards them. you don't really i'm working at facebook, want them to hurt themselves. no-one and i'm a mum of four kids. was badly hurt so that was a good and i'm very proud that thing about the fight. we will bring i'm able to do both. you the result in a moment. and guess what? mums are using our products, a big win for chorley, and so we want to be all of yesterday's football to come. hiring more mums as well. we start though with england so, give us a call, susan. who will face france in the final why not? of rugby union's autumn lara: and there isn'tjust one route

nations cup next weekend. a match which could see 2,000 fans into the industry either. watching at twickenham. it comes after they won their third i'm halfway through a coding boot camp right now, group game in a row — which i'm really enjoying, beating wales 24—13 in llanelli. and i feel like programming katie gornall reports. will be our language of our future. it's a field that i wish i'd gotten into earlier or had more access there are few sporting occasions to at a younger age. that would miss fans more than wales so, how do you guys feel versus england and with stand about hiring people from boot camps as opposed to traditional education? silent, it was up to others to provide the soundtrack. a run of poor form left wales in i'm absolutely thrilled to hire provide the soundtrack. a run of poorform left wales in need provide the soundtrack. a run of poor form left wales in need for provide the soundtrack. a run of poorform left wales in need for a bit of luck. when the chance came, people from boot camps. in the us, at least, we have some biases in our school they seized it. lastly, johnny williams took time out for cancer system that select young girls out of mathematics and science, treatment, now he's doing what he and we need to do better does best. the six nations champions at supporting them as an industry. so, apprenticeship programmes are really popular right quickly hit back, stretching the now at tech companies, and those are great ways welsh defence while while henry to get started once you've slade strolled. owen farrell had finished your boot camp to get your foot in the door. missed his first two kicks. his third would give england the lead countries around the world actively need more people, before halftime and after it, they notjust women, but boys and girls to learn these languages. edged further ahead. the covid to often, people think that if you're in engineering, polar, short on space but still then you have to just be finding room to twist, turn and in the engineering side of it, they don't understand that muscle to the line. eddiejones had there's a design side,

more muscle to turn to and although and that it might notjust wales kept closer than many be in a tech company, expected, the flow was with farrell. you could be in a fashion company, you could be in a retail company. there are going to be for us it is more a chance to get better again. we don't feel like we've played a beckstrom —— test jobs all over the place. by, we've played a beckstrom —— test rugby, it is our grand final 2020 so both gender equality and a diverse workforce are essential we wa nt rugby, it is our grand final 2020 so we want to make sure we put on our for better technology, too. best performance, want to make sure we put on a performance that lights up we put on a performance that lights up people's eyes and they sit there quite frankly, if we're trying to build software and they look at the team and they for the entire world, wa nt to the entire world has to be and they look at the team and they want to be part of the team. now represented in the room. and so, if you're building software england's next step is into next with only men in the room, month's final. katie gornall, bbc you're going to end up with problems where the software fails for women, just flat out. news —— bbc news. applause. thank you, everyone. the best try of the day though came thank you, everyone, in exeter‘s win over bath that is all we have time for. in the premiership. a huge thank you to our expert panellists and to our fabulous exeter went for a cross—field kick. audience, those who've spoken and look at the next kick and those who've looked in as well. it has been such a blast. from tom o'flaherty. on the volley... take care, and we'll see you soon. almost half the length of the pitch and then running in for the try. that kick is worth a closer look — and that is it for the short he sends the ball downfield

london as well. just signs of was enough to beat everton. something a bit writer developing in devon at the moment. we could see a chorley pulled off the biggest win in their 137—year history bit of sunshine done in the by knocking peterborough out south—west and across parts of wales of the fa cup and reaching but generally speaking it will be round three for the first time. having already dispatched wigan, they came from behind quite cloudy day today across the to stun the league one side country was not the best of some and they thoroughly deserve sunshine in scotland in the their place in monday's draw — when the premier league north—east after that., the cabbages sides come in. chorley have developed a tradition of celebrating are set to recover and through the their victories with a rousing rendition of adele. afternoon, temperatures on the mild and they didn't let side for this time of year, we're looking at a 6— 11 degrees quite widely but we could get 12 or 13 the side down last night. down into the south—west and across the channel isles. through the night tonight, we keep the cloud and it stays mild they will be wet weather it's a familiar story in the f1 in bahrain putting into the north—west is a frontal system moves through to as lewis hamilton continues bring some heavier bursts of rain to extend his own records into scotland and overnight lows, by qualifying on pole for the 98th time. look at this, generally staying at fresh from clinching a seventh world title about 5—6, it eight degrees. we two weeks ago in turkey, he set the pace in bahrain ahead of teammate valtteri bottas and max verstappen. start off on a mild note but they the race starts just after 2:00. will be some rain around and that rain is going to continue to push its way steadily south and east. it will weaken as it moves down into the midlands and towards the london area they will be heavier bursts

charlotte wright has been to meet her. he got three million and mike tyson got 10 million. it was only 82 it gets a bit more ravey. who said minute rounds, a much shorter bout than usual when no—one was hurt, your daily lockdown exercise had to thatis be dull? move over mr motivator. than usual when no—one was hurt, that is the main thing that you could say was that easy money in the end? as a watcher, couldn't tell if they were going for it or not. mike tyson looks in good shape, you have this is cara sparkles, on a mission got to say that about him. at the end of the fight, he was the one to cheer us all up in the of the being more aggressive, he looked like he was in better shape. but roy pandemic. when they first announced lockdown i thought this would be jones like he was in better shape. but roy joneer was like he was in better shape. but roy jones jr was really struggling like he was in better shape. but roy joneer was really struggling for breath at times. we will speak to really annoying, because i live on my own and i do like living on my you later on. own but a lot of the time i go out and dance and go to parties and see in normal times, it's pretty easy people, and i thought, this is going to tell when someone to be quite tricky because i'm just is giving you a friendly smile, on my own all the time. so i but with face—covernings, it's not so straightforward. thought, i know what will be good india grant has been for a laugh. i'll put on my glittery out to try and teach us all the art of the ‘smize' — top, go down to the beach and dance around. and! top, go down to the beach and dance around. and i thought, why don't i do this every day? cara has done her smiling with your eyes. sequined jump on most days since smizing or smiling with your eyes, march, taking her sound system to it is an idea arrived by supermodel the streets and just letting go.

tyra banks. our faces it is an idea arrived by supermodel tyra banks. ourfaces covered by attracting plenty of attention and masks at the time, our eyes and what they signal a really important. in participants. this is literally the only thing that is happening. so 2020, have all had to learn how to they especially love it. they love smize. so can these people in they especially love it. they love the dancing, showers a great dancer, obviously. it is the spirit of aberdeen at telephone happy to see them? with one eye, yes. it looks brighton, it is just obviously. it is the spirit of brighton, it isjust magic every time you come here. dc is beautiful like you probably are. yes, i can and the people are beautiful. how's that? why do you like it? because it tell if your smiling because i can is sparkly. and how does it make you tell if your smiling because i can tell from people's eyes was not yes, feel at the moment? heavy! showers you are smiling, i can tell by your eyes. you do have to smile a bit more if you are wearing a mask, it comes over in your mask. no idea, to spreading the sparkle much further than brighton, though. carterfilms be honest. got walked through the each dance on her phone and then upload them to facebook, where some science of the smile and how it have been viewed and shared tens of ta kes science of the smile and how it takes over your whole face. a lot of thousands of times. yeah, i'm not the best dance in the world, not the the smile is in the eyes. back on best figure in the world, but it is the smile is in the eyes. back on the 16th century there was a french just bringing joy and happiness to anatomist who looked at what the people, you know, it is time for markers of a real smile versus met people, you know, it is time for people to sparkle. we can bring the

top models did. we will have to make —— wearface top models did. we will have to make —— wear face masks and that has made people's expression is harder to read. now with a vaccine on the way, we have all got one big reason to smile. that is one heck of a mask, that. good morning, welcome to breakfast with chris mason and rachel burden. our headlines today: that is one heck of a mask, thatm would make doing your make up a heck borisjohnson attempts to see off a conservative rebellion ofa would make doing your make up a heck on his new coronavirus restrictions, of a lot easier, wearing these during the programme. for glasses by telling backbenchers the tiers could end in february. whereas, the whole business of steaming up. i can't work out if family and friends of anyone is smiling because i can't jack merritt and saskia jones see them anyway. irrespective of the commemorate their lives, one year on from the london bridge terror attack. fa ct see them anyway. irrespective of the fact that their mouth is invisible. you got to get the eyebrows to do a dave prowse, the man behind the mask of darth vader, bit more work, i think.|j has died at the age of 85. you got to get the eyebrows to do a bit more work, i think. i don't know prince charles backs a bbc countryfile project, whether you are smiling, i think you to plant 750,000 trees. arejust whether you are smiling, i think you are just looking slightly weird which would be enough to put me off. i have to say thank you to my mother for my home—made mask, it is one of as someone with a passion for my particular favourites. this one planting trees, i can only encourage

here's our political correspondent, iain watson. it's a testing time for the prime minister. he's facing a rebellion from some of his own mp5, when the commons votes on his new three tier restrictions in england on tuesday. so last night he wrote to his conservative colleagues with a new formula to try to shrink the size of the revolt. hello, this is breakfast with chris mason and rachel burden. in his letter, he promised good morning. that if mp5 back him this week he will give them time is running out a new vote on the restrictions to save the retail giant arcadia, the owner of brands like topshop, on january 27th. burton and dorothy perkins, from the brink of collapse. administrators could be appointed as early as tomorrow, if he loses that vote, putting 13,000 jobs at risk. then the restrictions will end on february third. and he says a review of restrictions next month means some areas could come out of tier let's get more from consumer three by december 19, journalist felicity hannah, who joins us now. but that'll still depend on the evidence. and the newly appointed ministerfor vaccines had good morning to you. good morning. this message for any conservative mp thinking of rebelling. if we work together talk us through what we can expect we can very quickly move to happen next? well, it is going to from the tier system be very, very interesting. arcadia to coming down those tiers, says it is looking at a number of to tier 2 and tier 1, with the mass testing. contingency plans to try to guarantee its brands' survival, but the prime minister's also offering a fortnightly review of the tiers,

we pretty much expect now that but has he done enough to win over the rebels? administrators will be called in well, one of them told the bbc today or next week. it is looking increasingly certain. there was talk he wasn't impressed. of the week and perhaps that mike we asked for a lot of information and that letter ashley was going to ride to the doesn't contain that information, rescue with £50 million on a rescue so unless we get it between now and tuesday, then it fund, or £50 million in a secured doesn't change anything, i'm afraid. borisjohnson wants to avoid relying on labour votes to get loan, but that doesn't seem to be his restrictions happening. that has been dismissed through the commons. they're asking for more help by mike ashley, so it does look like for the worst affected areas. administrators will be appointed. if the prime minister says he wants that happens, the brands will to squeeze the disease, but first he'll have continue to trade, so top shop would to squeeze the rebellion in his own ranks. reopen in england when the other iain watson, bbc news. shops reopen next week and it would let's get more on this continue to trade and they would with our political seek buyers, perhaps, at that point. correspondent, ellie price. it isa seek buyers, perhaps, at that point. it is a really important detail, but, isn't it? forshoppers what is significantly different it is a really important detail, but, isn't it? for shoppers in the short—term, and indeed for the even about what the prime minister has said today, then, ellie?” in administration, the businesses would continue. talk through what about what the prime minister has said today, then, ellie? ithink it shows a strength of feeling that he might happen, which bits of the realises this is going on on the backbenches of his own party. prime business might be particularly ministers don't often give appealing to a potential buyer and which bits, bluntly, might not be? concessions unless they are absolutely forced too and i was certainly. but a lot of arcadia speaking to an mp yesterday who said

brands, the ones that have retained he had no confidence in the their appeal and still have that cack—handed way that this had been attraction of high street at the put together all the ability to get bigger names like top shop or top us out. another mp told me he was man, those other brands but i think waiting for more evidence and people still get quite excited information. the government has about. some of the other brands, already said it will publish an impact assessment, like a cost dorothy perkins, evans wallace, they benefit analysis type of thing on perhaps don't have quite the same fashion brownie points they used to. monday and that may go some way to making some of these mp5 build some analysts have suggested they be allowed to wither on the vine a bit, better. don't forget there was a they have not had that same energy conservative rebellion at the behind them. i think brands like top beginning of november when this short—term lockdown was introduced in england, but that didn't get shop have a lot of customer loyalty anywhere because labour voted with and customer love, and i think the government. we don't know what perhaps that might be the most labour are going to do at this time, attractive brand if it comes to although it is probably telling breaking it up and selling the parts labour haven't said yet they would off. you mentioned mike ashley a vote against the government. what does this all mean? if this vote moment ago and talked down the didn't pass on tuesday, it is significance he might have in the crucially important because the future of any of these brands, but i wonder what might appeal to a lockdown rules will lapse their potential buyer? you talked about basically wouldn't be any rules or how some of the brands are perhaps regulations or restrictions on all of us. i think more realistically it more valuable than others, but then there is the floorspace on the high will pass, but that doesn't mean there won't be problems with the government when mp5 vote again at street, and i guess that isn't as the end of january. government when mp5 vote again at the end ofjanuary. thank you very much of a potential purchase as it much, ellie.

moment, with theirjobs under threat, and in particular, the in the star wars trilogy question being asked about the has died at the age of 85. dave prowse passed away pension fund, the arcadia pension after a short illness. fund and how that might be resolved, given the situation the group finds he'll be remembered for being the man behind the mask itself in? lots of people have been of one of film history's most iconic characters in a career spanning over 50 years, drawing comparisons to the bhs situation, whether pension had such as lizo mzimba reports. a huge black hole in it. that isn't at six foot six with a towering the case, necessarily, for arcadia, figure, dave prowse was physically but there are concerns about the perfect for the part of darth vader pension fund shortfall. it has had more money put into it in recent in the original star wars trilogy yea rs more money put into it in recent in the 19705 and 19805. years and the pension fund will be looks like you two need a lesson the main creditor, if anything does in crossing the road! happen, if it does go into at the same time, he was also administration, it will be the the face of road safety, pension fund, the government pension presenting videos and visiting thousands of schools as the green cross code man. specialists will step in and try to find that, but it could be that the current or previous employees do lose a portion of their pension we won't be there when you cross plans, so it is hard to speculate at this point. there is a lot to be the road, so always use the... seen. this point. there is a lot to be seen. they would be the priority creditors in the event arcadia does robot: ..green cross code! have to go into administration and start selling off its round stop it's very interesting, because when i became darth vader,

when the star wars film came out, thank you, felicity. good to talk to i almost got the sack you. have a nice sunday, and top from the government because they thought that my image colour co—ordination of those as darth vader would have a detrimental effect bookshelves, as well. i do like on my image as the that. thanks a lot. i noticed that green cross code man. too. a champion weightlifter, he eventually tried acting, we'll be back with the playing a succession of small roles, headlines at 7:00am. including one in stanley kubrick's now, it's time for an exclusive look behind the scenes of finland's classic a clockwork orange, sharing scenes with coalition government, malcolm mcdowell. which is led by five women with incredible stories. and then came the role of the physically imposing when i was younger, my perception darth vader. of politicians was also he had the bulk, he had the build, that they are men in suits who talk but he also had a bristol accent. start tearing the ship apart piece on the 8:30pm news. by piece until you've found those tapes. find the passengers of this vessel. i want them alive! you are part of the sanna marin is the world's youngest rebel alliance and a traitor. serving female prime minister take her away! and heads the coalition of five when the first star parties, all led by women. wars film came out he found that his dialogue had been from being the first country in europe to give replaced with the booming tones equal voting rights, finland has been praised for its historic approach of james earljones. to gender equality. but is all as good i have traced the rebel spies to her. as it seems to be? now she is my only link to finding their secret base. he may never have been five, white educated females is not very representative in the end. the voice behind the villain, but the man behind

and is this really the mask of darth vader a country for every woman? is how he will always be remembered. of course, our background still affects the possibilities that we have in life and this should and for so many, he played the most not be the case but of iconic cinema villain ever seen. course we have problems. for the first time, finland's all—female leaders open their doors exclusively for the bbc. david prowse, who's died at the age of 85. he's often called the world's loneliest elephant after living in miserable conditions in a zoo to show the inner workings of this in pakistan for the past three decades. but now, kaavan will live out the rest of his years at a wildlife historic government. sanctuary in cambodia. it follows a five—year campaign — supported by popstar cher. secunder kermani reports. this is the story of one of the world's most famous pop li andersson is one of the five stars, and the world's female party leaders that make up the country's coalition government. this week, the cabinet are going to be meeting to launch loneliest elephant. a signature government programme, the equality plan, aimed to improve equality across society, including on race and gender issues. there's so much been made after 35 years in captivity, since december 2019 about this being such a young government, at times left chained up,

and such, and the gender kaavan is being set free. of the government, as well. tens of thousands of people signed a petition on his behalf. his most vocal supporter, superstar cher. earlier this year she described news of his upcoming release as one of the greatest moments of her life. what are your thoughts when you read the headlines and see kaavan was given to pakistan as a gift by the sri lankan the kind of top line of what the international government back in 1985. media has been saying? i have mixed emotions regarding it, but he has been badly because on the one hand, i understand the power of example treated at this zoo, and symbolic value of that, but i also think there is kind enduring poor conditions. of this tendency of some people to say that, because there is women, life got even worse after his only you will make a certain type companion died eight of policy or it is easier years ago. for you to agree when you are all women and so on, and that is not, the way kaavan is swaying his head i think necessarily the case from side to side as a common sign and that is why i also want of distress, and it is something that he spends a lot of time doing. it is why campaigners have been so keen to move him. there to be a focus around policy. now kaavan will be taken to a wildlife sanctuary in cambodia, after a court shut the zoo down of the government, until its facilities are improved. not just the gender of the female party leaders. i mean, in finnish media, i think there has been some kind of comments around whether we'll go to the sauna together, good boy! a specialist because there is this old cliche international charity has about finnish politics been preparing him for thejourney, that the decisions are made trying to get him used to the crate in the sauna, something that had

been heavily criticised in feminist he will fly in, using circles because, you know, food to encourage him to obey the commands. the whole idea of male decision—makers sitting in a sauna is based on this concept it is like any other dog training, or training your cat or whatever. a bit bigger than a cat! of decision—makers being solely men. it depends on the cat! i think the main deal like a boys' club? is that he feels comfortable yes. and of course, i mean, with whatever you do, what we want is not to reproduce or at least excited the excluding structures that men enough to follow, and maybe to follow you somehow. have used as women, but really to change the whole structures. because as soon as he is kind li andersson and sanna marin of afraid, as soon as he were both members of their shows some mistrust, yeah, respective youth parties, years before taking office. a tv debate featuring them both than you can go back home. from 2011 was one of the first times a wider finnish public the end is near. was introduced to them. kaavan weighs around five tonnes. moving him will be a huge when i was younger, my perception of politicians was also logistical challenge. but the charity's leading vet has discovered how to keep him calm. singing to him. his favourite song, frank sinatra's my way. secunder kermani,

bbc news, islamabad. he has lived in some terrible conditions, but there are good people out there looking after him now. yes, he is in his crate and soon now. yes, he is in his crate and soon to be airborne, i think. yes, very exciting. now, it is eight to that they are men in suits who talk on the 8:30pm news. and they are at a huge 10am. —— 8am. distance from me or my family or everyday life. if you were watching yesterday, you'll remember we showed you a valuable lesson in the importance of timing, when it comes to a grand christmas i mean, especially in the youth organisations, i think light switch—on ceremony. there is a huge amount of idealism, four, three, two, one! brilliant! it which you should have when you are working in the youth organisations which i kind of miss, just doesn't get old, that, does it? in a way in myself. so i think both me and sanna that was officials were a lot more work focused in bridgwater, in somerset, being a bit slow with and maybe also a bit more aware of kind of the political realities their ceremonial plunger. well, it turns out this kind of the field we are working in now, of blunder happens more often than you think... compared to what we did when we were in the youth organisations. five, four, three, two, one! happy prime minister sanna marin grew up in a modest sized town, two hours north—west of helsinki. christmas! five, four, three, two, she was raised in a low—income

family of lesbian mothers and was the first person to go one! happy christmas! also caught out by the timings crisis. once more to university in herfamily. for good luck? happy christmas! good luck to all the mayors and local while she speaks honestly about her background, she remains fiercely guarded dignitaries switching on christmas about her family and private life. lights this week. yeah, if you have she would have been in any one got the actual switch of cameras of these classrooms? she has been in all of these just don't be too trigger—happy. if classrooms and i have taught it comes on a couple of seconds late in all of these classrooms, but... you can get away with that. at the high school, her former head terrific. it is 12 minutes past teacher recalls his memories. eight. she was just an average girl, in just a matter of days england will come out of lockdown, and be placed under nothing extreme, nothing special. a new set of restrictions. more than 55 million people will be when you look at her and her first placed under the tightest measures, but how is it going to work year of leadership, do you think any this time around? parts of her childhood we're joined now by epidemiologist or her upbringing would have informed how she is as a leader now dr mike tildesley. from what you can see? good morning to you, nice to talk to you on breakfast once again. i think in common—sense, that she, her childhood from your perspective as an has not been very easy. her strength and hard—working way epidemiologist, when you look at to do things and leadership these tears, do you think they will must have got something work? well, i think if we analyse

from her youth and childhood. what happened last time i think it is very clear that any regions in tier1 under the education minister li andersson is very clear that any regions in tier 1 under the old is very clear that any regions in tier1 under the old system, should is attending a round circle chat we know that the r number was with high schoolers. how did you guys feel when you saw greater than one and cases were this new government? rising. i suspect that is probably i did not really mind that much. why, i there has been a little bit of concern with a lot of people being... there are very few parts of the country in tier! and that is why we are seeing most of the country now coming out in due to or tier 3. the evidence we were getting before this lockdown was that laughter. i am not saying it is bad, deirdre was sufficient to bring the it is nice to see women, r number below one, but onlyjust, but i feel like as i have grown up, so r number below one, but onlyjust, i have always felt that i could do so of course this is the concern if we have one eye on christmas and we whatever i wanted to do, know the government have already so that is why seeing a woman didn't committed to relaxing over the really mean as much because i knew christmas period, so the concern that, it didn't really matter. li's government has an equality plan probably is that if regions come that is going to be, back into lower tiers we would that is going to be addressing a lot of issues including education. probably see cases rising again in to make an experience the weeks leading up to christmas of yours easier in school, andi the weeks leading up to christmas and i suspect that is why we are what would you suggest seeing slightly stricter restrictions coming into force next week. when you hear the minister would be a change?

tried to reassure his sceptical maybe in health education, backbenchers about how long the we do sexuality and gender, tiering system might last and talk it is more focused on cisgendered about there might be another vote and heterosexual people. it is mostly students i think come the end ofjanuary to decide who talk about it more, whether or not is renewed, i wonder bring it up in class. what you make about? because on the face of it at the moment it seems ludicrous that you could get to the end of january or the ludicrous that you could get to the iagree. the education tells a lot end ofjanuary or the beginning of february after that christmas relaxation, still in the middle of winter, and that tiering system still just banishing?” about what is important, winter, and that tiering system stilljust banishing? i think it is naive if we think the tiering system or something like that is not going to completely vanish at the end of what is valuable, what is the thing january. we know very clearly that you want to teach the young ones? yes, we have a vaccine on the and if you do not include horizon, but we are still some the minorities, then you do not, people do not learn about them. months away from building up to the in reality, it is a lot levels where we are going to get dependent on teachers. herd immunity and will be able to yeah. it's also dependent on the school. relax these restrictions. i think i think all teachers do not necessarily have the tools the key thing to remember and this that they would need to educate is important, is that we do need a you and maybe sometimes you need to educate the teachers. plan, the public need to know what criteria we need to be set aside to laughter. although finland is celebrated for its equality, recent reports drop down a tear and i think that is from the council of europe have detailed what they call a concerning quite important because we have been rise in racism the country. under some measures now programmed bella forsgren is the only black politician in finland's government about eight months and

and akunna onwen is the chair understandably there is an element of fatigue setting in with the of the finland antiracist forum. for us on the outside population we do need to really when you look at finland, emphasise that yes, there is a one of the first countries vaccine on the horizon, but we are in the world to allow women to vote not there yet, so we do want to and run for government, you know, really good laws when it comes maintain high levels of adherence to to maternity leave and also paternity leave, real conversations that are being had the rules would be public so we don't see roses after christmas period. and they are looking at case rates and looking back fairly bold figure of rates per 100,000, so for example in trafford in greater about the pay gap. manchester, 164 cases per 100,000 there in tier 3, yet favouring 318 cases per 100,000, in tier 2. we know that is not the only thing the government looks at when it is making those decisions, but what for you is the most important indicator of where a different area should be in the system? i think really there are two most important thing is, both the cases per 100,000, which gives us an estimate of really how many cases there are in the area, how much risk is there on any particular day that other people might be infected? but also the r

number or the growth rate of the virus, so for instance if you have only 100 cases per 100,000, but the r number is greater than one, that isa r number is greater than one, that is a real concern because we know then cases will start to go up. the other way round, of course, if you have a higher number of cases but the r number is less than one, you may be able to relax restrictions on if we had exactly the same conditions, exactly the same the relatively near future because timing and age and... cases are going down. the other key thing i should mention of course is what is your current hospital family background, and yet sanna marin was black, occupancy? a lot of this is really would she be prime minister? now? important. a lot of this is about not now. protecting the nhs we want to make no. laughter. sure hospitals aren't overwhelmed. let's talk about christmas because not now. you are wrestling a few moments ago she was the first female minister with the psychology that plays into of the interior in the 805 but you saw many from the previous the epidemiology, so you have got decades and she was in office human behaviour and our desire to see friends and relatives, but at the same time the obvious danger is if we do that. i wonder what you make of the governments of the uk around that window over christmas she was the first female minister

of the interior in the 805 and how dangerous that could be but you saw many from the previous epidemiologically, even if they decades and she was in office might bea epidemiologically, even if they might be a tremendous moment for when it was the chernobyl accident. many of us, being able to see our family? yeah, it is a really good point and family? yeah, it is a really good pointandi family? yeah, it is a really good point and i will say i am not a what happened in finland was that behavioural expert and i think this people did not know what's happening is probably one of the things as there and we got the information quite late and so on. epidemiologists we have the hardest so she didn't get re—elected any time trying to quantify, predicting what people are going to do is more afterwards but then we have had some females afterwards. extremely difficult. i think perhaps some level of relaxation where we allow ourfamilies not too many. some level of relaxation where we allow our families to be together to actually, i'm the first green present loneliness is important, but ever in this ministry. again the key message to get out is so that is something new. just because you can meet to i think the representation with five households it doesn't mean necessarily you should and if you white educated females is not very representative, are ina necessarily you should and if you are in a position with venerable household members and you should do what you can to protect them. in in the end. terms of what —— with vulnerable and there were a lot of critical household members. in terms of what writings when this photo went viral, to do in the new year, do remember that if we really look at the equality here, children of school, universities are it does not show yet, shut and a lot of people are off and i agree on that. work, so if we can keep these the idea of maintaining, household mixing exclusive, meaning if you have two other households you

are mixing with stay within those taking care of the welfare state, and we keep cases low in the run—up to christmas, hopefully we can mitigate for a lot of the rise in as a system, led me to study social politics and i thought that 0k, cases that will happen over the i have got quite a lot of help christmas period. thanks very much. from the welfare state. my dad, especially, was unemployed, drmike christmas period. thanks very much. dr mike tildesley, epidemiologist, had some substance abuse a lwa ys dr mike tildesley, epidemiologist, always good to have you on problems, they divorced when i was one—year—old. brea kfast. always good to have you on breakfast. thank you. staying with the the pandemic, so i was also brought up with a single mother and we've all had to get used for a little while in my life. to wearing masks. so maybe this background influenced chris has brought a posh one for the something that, in many countries, that this would not be the beginning occasion of being on breakfast for a political career. television. it's not that snazzy, is actually it was the first female president and the only female it? yes, i normally wear the president, she says it's not the person who breaks the glass disposable blue ones that fall ceiling, but the people who follow. apart, but i thought i would give and i think that is to the point. this a go. this is her made by my mother so i will get her to make one you always, you need the person for you if you like. that would be terrific. in normal times, it's who will break the ceiling but then pretty easy to tell when someone is giving you a friendly smile, but with face coverings it's not so straightforward. you also need all the people so, india grant has been out to try who will follow. and teach us all the art of the "smize" — and you should never stop that. smiling with your eyes. smizing or smiling with your eyes, it's an idea popularised

by supermodel tyra banks. far up in the arctic circle, finland's northern territory with our faces covered is home to europe's by masks a lot of the time, only indigenous population. the sami people. our eyes and what they signal are really important. and in 2020, we've all had sami's ancestral land spread to learn how to smize. from russia to sweden sami's so can these people in aberdeen tell if i'm happy to see them? um, with one eye, yes. ancestral land spread from russia to sweden and the sami people laughs still live off the land. it looks like you probably are. in finland, they were only um, with one eye, yes. officially recognised by the government in the ‘905 it looks like you probably are. and they still face a battle yeah, i can tell that you're smiling for their right to the land because i can tell from people's and their way of life. eyes if they're smiling or not. can you only get cloudberries in finland ? yes, you are smiling, i think all over the arctic. i can tell by your eyes. i think you have to smile a bit more an arctic fruit? when you're wearing a mask, yes. it is our vitamin pill. it does comes over in your eyes. no, no idea, to be honest. you are now, i see your eyes. psychologist david smith walked me through the science of the smile and how it takes it's a little vitamin pill? yes, it's very good for you. over your whole face. sara wesslin is a journalist actually, a lot of the smile is in the eyes.

back in the 16th century based in a sami town. there was a french anatomist, duchenne, who looked at what the markers of a real smile versus a fake smile. a lot of it is down to the eyes, it's the muscles surrounding the eyes called the orbicularis oculi. she works for the finnish what happens is during a real smile, broadcaster where she is one these muscles contract. of the two reporters to work so a smile can go a long way in the skolt sami language. in making others feel good. what are the major issues concerning sami people right now? in aberdeen, this bar is still allowed to serve alcohol, we don't have a sami representative a reason to be cheerful. in finnish government. is that worrying? how are masked staff making customers feel welcome? i think you need to obviously have your body language and people can see you are smiling with your eyes and just even yes, of course, and there has been with the tone of voice, many years, there has been talk so although the mask about and discussion about it, covers your face, you can should samis have their own representatives in the eu? still speak to people in other ways. in your ideal future, what would you like this government to do? the regular guests coming back in, what would you like sanna marin to do? for sami women? we do know when we smile, they do know when we smile, we don't have to be ashamed that we are sami, living in finland, they still can see the smile we can be proud that we are part of finnish nation. through the eyes so i think it's even being in the table, being both of us, it's 50—50 situation. in the room with decision—making. 12 months ago it would have been one old saying that, absurd to have to say to people, yes, i'm smiling. "nothing about us without us." and smizing or smiling with your eyes was something that

only top models did. one of the main issues addressed in the government equality plan we've all had to wear face masks is the rights of gender minorities in finland. trans rights activists and that's made people's expressions have for years asked harder to read. for reform of the trans act, but now with a vaccine a law that currently requires those on the way, we've all got one seeking legal gender recognition big reason to smile. india grant, bbc news. to undergo enforced sterilisation. ah, nice! you see, that's what we finland is the only nordic need, little things sound to go with country that still requires it. that's it, shall be checking on infertility in order the weather at 8:21am ? to get your legal gender recognised. it. that's it, shall be checking on in order to get male to female the weather at 8:21am? louise is here. oh, look at that! that is a or female to male you need to prove that you cannot problem bank robber mask, that is! you know, i can tell you are have biological children. smiling, louise, there is no in some cases, the people can become mistaking with those eyes. it is the crow's feet you can see! giveaway, i infertile enough by taking hormones, know. plenty of crows feet are on my face, but if you are unable to take hormones or do not want to take ican plenty of crows feet are on my face, i can assure you, particularly at hormones, then you will not this time of the morning. you will get your legal gender recognised until you are in some other need a snood, perhaps, if you are way found infertile, going out in scotland because temperatures are at —5 at the meaning that at the end if nothing moment, so you will be grateful for else helps, then it is surgical the facemask, but not so across that

removal of your organs. for me, the case was that east coast, a cloudy, misty start as i was already perceived as a male you can see, but quite quiet. a when i started the legal process. couple of brave people taking an early morning walk here this and it still took me 2.5 years morning, but generally the cloud will be the talking point with the with a female passport, story today across much of the country. where we are seeing those meaning i could not travel, clear skies in the north—east of outside of basically nordic scotla nd clear skies in the north—east of scotland it is cold and frosty here. countries, i could not apply we have got a bit of practice for a job, could not apply for nothing without having issues, pushing through south wales and west of england as well, but generally having to prove my identity. speaking the emphasis is cloudy, grey and rather dull through the that made me be in a hurry day, but not too bad for this time with the medical part. of year, 6—10. day, but not too bad for this time of year, 6—10 . through the night tonight that plaid will stay with we have had a female president, we have the youngest female us, temperatures not falling far, leader of the country, but at the same time these winds will strengthen, we will start to but alone that does not, see rain arriving on the far north—west and some of that rain it is just a token alone, it has to have the support heavily across exposed north coasts, so heavily across exposed north coasts, soa mild of the system behind it heavily across exposed north coasts, so a mild start to monday morning, before it actually makes but there will be some rain first a difference in the law. thing. that rain will continue to we have had a coalition with some push its way out of scotland and sort of a very conservative party, saying that if this goes forward, across the country, so it is this frontal system here and once it we will resign from the coalition and all the other parties have clears through, the wind direction

caved in and said ok, swinging background to a northerly, fine, let's do it next time. so swinging background to a northerly, soa swinging background to a northerly, so a change to the feel of our weather as we go through the week. so it's possible the trans act could on monday, yes some brain around be the sacrificial lamb once again? it looks that way. that sweeps steadily south—east, brighter skies, cooler conditions any coalition government is a mixed developing in scotland. as the rain bag of politics and agendas that have come together in the hope of being more effective, pushing south—east it will be very light and patchy, so not that much but to implement any real change, all government plans require significant wet weather across unanimous support across—the—board. south—east england, top temperatures to the afternoon of 8—11 c, so is that front slips through then we start to see the northerly wind when you build a government kicking in, particularly unexposed eastern areas, so kicking in, particularly unexposed eastern areas, so that does mean a in finland, you put a lot of thought difference to the feel of the weather, so first thing on tuesday on what we call the government morning potentially across scotland and eastern england you could be programme and there is a negotiation waking up once again to an early we had for three weeks in 2019 morning frost for your dog walk, but and then when you have that i suspect the further west you go it will stay rather cloudy because programme, everyone there is a weather front thatjust knows that this is it. this is what we have lingers through much of the day, so decided together. cloudy skies here, the best of the when you are five different parties, sunshine on tuesday reserved for you have to all the time try to see how you find solutions eastern england, but don't forget to factor in the direction the wind

when you have different opinions. making it feel cool all of those exposed coasts, 6—10 . then from i mean, no party can have it just their own way and sometimes wednesday onwards low pressure is going to take over, getting a little there are these tensions that have to do with making compromises behind more unsettled, as you can see, and closed doors, and of course, we are all one government so we all have to defend the from thursday into friday i can tell you it is going to turn colder, so compromises that we make in public. that means some of those showers gradually as we get towards friday could turn wintry to higher ground. nice to meet you. there you go, back to you too. thank you, louise and thank you to your shall we walk up together? great. mask as well. speak to you later, finland's party leaders are meeting cheers. one way of doing your bit to help at helsinki's houses of the estates the environment for years for the cabinet meeting to discuss to come is to grow a tree. the new equality programme. trans rights and racism we know the benefits to the are on the agenda. environment of such a simple action. tonight, bbc countryfile do you prep yourself up before... before doing these things? is launching a new campaign to plant no, no. 750,000 saplings across the uk — and wants us all to get involved. a number of high—profile names are supporting the initiative, they ask and i will answer honestly, including prince charles. i know that so many people so you don't need preparation. during this terribly difficult year have had their appreciation automated voice: please enter of the trees and other green

spaces around them deepened and therefore it is our duty, the conference password. given how long that it takes for a tree to mature, to plant trees now for future generations to enjoy, and for the immense benefits, finland has had coalition governments forever, particularly in towns and cities so of course we are used to trying from their shade in an ever to make compromises and trying more overheated climate. there are so many opportunities to find consensus between different for us all to plant more trees, parties and ideologies and i think it's also a big strength for us. to protect green spaces and, of course it is not always above all, to plant avenues of trees the fastest way to get things done, in our towns and cities. but i think it's more... even small spaces can accommodate a tree or a green area planted it goes further, this kind of decisions, than the ones that with appropriate native species. you only make yourself. so, as someone with a passion for planting trees, i can only encourage you all to get planting there is always one or a few issues for plant britain. on the table that we all want joining us now to tell us to discuss together. so that we will have more about the campaign different perspectives. is countryfile presenter, for example, equality programme

is something that not only one tom heap. minister or ministry can do. nice to talk to you, tom. and i say it is something that every ministry has to focus on and make a decision in theirfield. we know planting a tree is a good thing to do for the environment, but just take us through the basics here, why is it so good? trees as they grow they take in carbon dioxide from the atmosphere from gender minorities are also discussed this fundamental equation, in the equality programme. photosynthesis, oxygen, carbon dioxide in the presence of water and particular transgender light, the underpinning are pretty people and finland has much all life on earth and as you been in the spotlight, know we have too much carbon dioxide it has been three years in the atmosphere at the moment, since the european court thatis in the atmosphere at the moment, that is what is causing the of human rights has said that forced greenhouse effect and climate sterilisation should not be allowed change. if we can get trees to draw in terms of recognising personal gender identity. it in, store it, take some down into those roots as well, that is carbon but it is the case still in finland. what do you think of that? ca ptu re, those roots as well, that is carbon capture, so in climate change terms it is completely black and white, growing trees are a great thing everyone should have the right across much of the world, definitely to determine their own identities, so i think we need to do many in the uk. then of course they have changes in our legislation all sorts of other benefits as well, and our government programme trees, so it is a real collateral actually supports this kind of idea. benefit system. so the aim, the for you, are trans women women?

intention is fantastic. the practicalities are sometimes a bit harder to work your way around, so it's not myjob to identify people. tell us about that. 750,000 is the ambition for countryfile? yes, that it is everyone's job to identify themselves. if someone feels that number is the equivalent of the he or she is a woman, number is the equivalent of the number of primary school children, the number of children starting then it is not my place to say. primary school this year, i should say, so that is a nice target figure and brings it home to the fact it is very much about the children who will notice the effect of these trees because as the old saying goes, the best time to plant a tree was 30 years ago and the second—best time is now. so it is a campaign on the number of fronts. plant britain has its own woodland and its own area we are trying to plant up near stockport in the manchester area, near you , stockport in the manchester area, nearyou, in stockport in the manchester area, near you, in fact, where matt baker one of the things with early is on the programme today talking about what he is doing there and we covid—19 response was a lot are linking up with the woodland was written about how well finland, taiwan, new zealand and germany did trust and other campaign groups to try to get planting activity in and in terms of their covid—19 response, around the country. also it is about quick and decisive action. what you can do in your own garden, the other thing those countries have

in common are female leaders. even your own window box because we have got a website and campaign well, of course there are countries going where you can find where to led by men that have also done get saplings if you have got a bit well, so i don't think of ground, planted in there and then you can enter it on the website and it is a gender—based issue, eve ryo ne you can enter it on the website and everyone can do this and we can see which part of the countries are i think we should more focus on how plotting what, who is doing best and all that kinda thing. and also, i the countries that have done well, wouldn't be above doing little bit what they have done, what they have learned, what we all can learn from each of gorilla tree planting as well, other and that we also why not find a sapling and do a bit have a response together, of planting on public ground and because it is a global pandemic. stick it in there! this is the thing, can you do that? could you at some point, something might change and that popularity might put cause potential damage by change when a decision needs to be putting the wrong tree in the wrong made, especially maybe during covid—19 times. does that worry you at all? place? there are some trees that are i don't... potentially... very, very few that look at polls. are actually potentially harmful and if the council decide there are in the wrong place they will take them the most important thing out, so i wouldn't worry or get too is we try to make the decisions that we have to make based hung up about that, but one thing i on the best knowledge that we can use. would say is you can plant trees that are better suited to different and also that we are trying to make environments and indeed my colleague decisions in a way that steve brown has been in his part of helps ordinary people the film looking at what trees are

in their ordinary lives. best suited to what places, so there in crises and also in normal times. are some areas where you would be better off with a birch or a beach. other places you might be better off with an alder or an oak, so that is something to bear in mind. but once again the website, our own bbc website, and the woodland trust will help out with that information, so there are plenty of places you can find stuff out there and also we are stressing you can actually plant trees in a window box as well. we have got a really nice film on that judi dench talks about that as well, how she plotted an acorn during of course, our backgrounds lockdown and it has already turned still affects the possibilities that we have in life and they should into a small oak tree, which is a start. you can go that your own saplings and maybe put them not be the case but of elsewhere. a small acorn comic we have done that as well, actually, it course we have problems. it is not the last time is amazing and immensely satisfying. that we will discuss these issues just on the politics briefly, almost and of course it is important that we are all focused every political party has pledged on how we will make the programme a reality. millions of trees, the conservatives so this is my mission at the last election and labour were talking about something like 100 million a year to reach their as prime minister. target, the lib dems 60 million a

but there are challenges ahead. year. are we actually seeing that action, are the politicians coming and no prime minister in finland has goodin action, are the politicians coming good in any of those promises?m seen a full term for decades. was extraordinary in the last but with 85% approval rating, election, as you say, a couple of sanna marin is enjoying a striking level of confidence in uneasy times. days where people are competing over the millions of trees they were going to plant and yes, that is happening around the country, it is happening around the country, it is happening around the country, it is happening a little bit slower than we would have hoped. to be fair to the politicians, that is partly because of lockdown, it has been a difficult year to get out there, get public campaigns into this kind of thing. but i think politicians of all parties are pretty much in favour of this, at least in principle, but it is definitely something we don't need to wait for our politicians to get started on or to put money behind. some of the saplings you can actually get for free, so you don't actually have to pay for them yourself, so that is a great thing. people of all stripes tend to love trees. there are very few politicians that don't love trees and i think that is true of the general public as well. thank you so much, tom, good luck with it all.

countryfile's special launch show is on bbc one tonight at 6.15. iam i am left with gorillas planting trees in my mind. gorilla tree—planting! trees in my mind. gorilla tree—pla nting! that is trees in my mind. gorilla tree—planting! that is my mind for laughter. you are at 830 on a sunday morning. good morning. welcome to breakfast stay with us, headlines coming up. with chris mason and rachel burden. our headlines today: borisjohnson attempts to see off a conservative rebellion on his new coronavirus restrictions, by telling backbenchers the tiers could end in february family and friends ofjack merritt and saskia jones commemorate their lives, one year on from the london bridge terror attack dave prowse, the man behind the mask of darth vader, has died at the age of 85. kaavan, the world's loneliest elephant, prepares for a new life of freedom, thanks in part hello, this is breakfast with chris mason and rachel burden. good morning. to a campaign by the singer cher. there was a dell of it's 8.32 almost. a shock in the fa cup. nothing but the best for chorley of the sixth tier, borisjohnson has written as they reach the third round. to conservative mp5 in an attempt to gain more support for england's new tier system, after rebellion from his own backbenches.

in the letter, the prime minister said measures in some areas might be eased in december, and promised a new vote injanuary. mp5 will vote on the system on tuesday and labour hasn't yet said if it will back the plan. good morning. quite a quiet sunday, lots of cloud around, largely dry the government has secured with light winds, and temperatures another two million doses of the coronavirus vaccine should take into double figures. all from the us which proved 95% the details coming up shortly. effective after trials. the uk now has seven—million jabs on order from the american company, moderna. it's sunday, november 29. if the vaccine is approved — doses our top story: could be delivered by next spring. labour says peak rail fares should be suspended over christmas — borisjohnson is attending to head to reduce the risk of overcrowding offa during off—peak periods. borisjohnson is attending to head off a rebellion by his own mp5, with a surge in journeys is expected his new tough tiers of coronavirus when restrictions on family visits are temporarily eased between restrictions, by promising another vote at the end of january. the the 23rd and 27th of december. the party is calling on the transport secretary england wide lockdown comes to an to present a travel plan end on wednesday. in a letter to his to parliament tomorrow. mp5, the prime minister said measures could be eased for some areas during december, but promised those are the main areas during december, but promised a second vote in the new year. he is a second vote in the new year. he is a political correspondent iain stories this morning. watson. it's a testing time for the prime minister. he's facing a rebellion let's talk all things sport with

from some of his own mp5, when the commons votes on his new three tier restrictions john. every so often, there is a in england on tuesday. so last night he wrote live boxing going on in the states, to his conservative colleagues with a new formula to try to shrink as you come into work. there is the the size of the revolt. sense that the world is alive in his letter, he promised that if mp5 back him this week somewhere, whatever time of night it might be here and it has been he will give them a new vote another one of those nights. on the restrictions onjanuary 27th. if he loses that vote, then the restrictions will end on february 3rd. some great celebrations as well and and he says a review of restrictions boxing, plenty to get through this morning. good morning. next month means some areas could come out of tier england are into the final three by december 19, of rugby union's autumn nations cup but that'll still depend on the evidence. after beating rivals wales by 24 and the newly appointed minister points to 13 in lanelli. for vaccines had this message england went behind early for any conservative mp on but henry slade's try thinking of rebelling. if we work together we can very began the turnaround quickly move from the tier system, and owen farrell added 14 points with the boot. to coming down those tiers, they'll play france in the final to tier two and tier one, at twickenham next saturday — with the mass testing. a match which should see 2,000 fans inside the stadium. the prime minister's also offering a fortnightly review of the tiers, but has he done enough for us it's more a chance to win over the rebels? to get better again. well, one of them told the bbc we don't feel like we've he wasn't impressed. played our best rugby yet, so it's our last game, we asked for a lot of information and that letter doesn't contain that it's our grand final of 2020, so we want to make sure information, so unless we get it we put on our best

between now and tuesday, then it doesn't change performance, want to make sure we put on a performance that anything, i'm afraid. borisjohnson wants to avoid lights up people's eyes and they sit relying on labour votes there and they look at the team and to get his restrictions through the commons. they want to be part of the team. they're asking for more help for the worst affected areas. liverpool are top of the premier league this morning, the prime minister says he wants after a controversial 1—1 to squeeze the disease — draw at brighton. but first he'll have to squeeze they were ahead until the 90th the rebellion in his own ranks. minute when this challenge earned iain watson, bbc news. brighton a penalty — a lot of debate about this — and pascal gross scored to make it 1—1. well, let's get more with our manchester city looked more like their old selves political correspondent ellie price. with a big win over burnley — riyad mahrez scoring his first ellie, yesterday we were talking hat—trick for the club. about michael gove's intervention, it was a premier legaue debut things have ratcheted up another to forget for the burnley keeper level. the premise obviously feels his voice was needed in all of this? bailey peacock—farrell, who let in five goals. yeah, ithink his voice was needed in all of this? yeah, i think he did, and it is there was a great game at quite telling, isn't it? like you goodison park, but despite countless chances there was only one goal, say, he must be quite worried about raphinha's strike for leeds, rebellion if he was willing to make enough to beat everton. these concessions. prime ministers had a habit of not making and sheffield united have made the worst start concessions unless they are to a premier league season. absolutely forced to. i think the they've just one point from ten games, after strength of feeling among those mp5 losing 1—0 at west brom — is quite telling. one mp told me yesterday he felt he had no conor gallagher with the goal.

confidence in the candid way this has been put together, nor the the bbc sport website has all ability to get us out of it. —— the goals from the fa cup games — including this one, non—league cack—handed way. another said he chorley enjoying the biggest win needed more evidence and more in their 137—year history. information. i think the concessions on this letter will probably go some they'd already knocked out wigan, way towards making him feel a bit better about all about. of course, and yesterday they came from behind to stun league one peterborough, conservative mp5 rebelled at the to reach round three beginning of november for the for the first time. current lockdown restrictions in england. there were about 30 or so conservative mp5 who voted against they are becoming the big fa cup the government. of course, but did story of this year. not go through at the time because mike calveley with the all—important goal. so they'll be in monday's draw — labour supported the government. the question is, will labour support the when the premier league sides government this time? i think it is enter the competition. great scenes of celebration there. very telling but so far they have not said they won't support the they have rounded off that government. why does all this matter, well, if that vote on tuesday doesn't go through, and the celebration with their traditional current restrictions we are living under in england, lockdown rules, rendition of adele in the changing will lapse. and there won't be any rooms. celtic and rangers both play rules or restrictions. i think what in the scottish league cup today. st mirren are among those is more likely to happen is that the already through to the quarter—finals. vote will go ahead on tuesday, but a fumble by aberdeen goalkeeper joe lewis two minutes from time the new tier system will come into gifted jamie mcgrath the winner, place, but there could certainly be after he shot from outside the box. problems in the future for the prime it's a familiar story in f1 as lewis hamilton continues minister, especially at the end of to extend his own records,

judgement or, show immense patience and indeed, provide hope. ultimately about making this work? we have been in a year where at the moment, the gps on the ground violence and the virus have really are still in the dark. i was allowed us to identify the priorities in life that really checking yesterday, has anyone heard how we are doing this? along with matter, to value the sense of community, in the sense and get onto two other local practices, my the front foot and help others. practice has offered to try and give within the company we have been it but we've heard anything. it is a doing a great deal to help others. huge, huge, mammoth task and that is our charity work in the field of mental health has been stronger than why they have appointed a minister to be in charge of it. this has ever before. our catering capacity has been shifted to helping those in never been done before, vaccinating the east end with food poverty, the whole population or certainly the whole population or certainly prisoner rehabilitation area, we the adult population as quickly as have really talked about here, you possible. and also we have got to get involved not because it is easy remember this has got to be done in but because it is difficult. a socially distanced way. we are education and the arts has been suffering greatly and then being the already facing the challenge of the fishmonger ‘s flu jabs and starting next week we suffering greatly and then being the fishmonger '5 company, our namesake are going to be given the flu jabs trade fish and chip very in the to over 505. that in itself is a course brexit context has been very challenge. we are having to open up much a front—page news. but all of a surgery challenge. we are having to open up a surgery at the we can in order to that together, accompany 150 years do it. this is the thing, one thing the old, we are showing high relevance to modern society and they hope governor appointing a minister and

plenty will see that as a logical every member of staff who comes into the building each day will take first step, but unless there is a great solace from their clear pattern and plan for how it is contribution. i know you broke at actually done, it could very easily the time shortly after the attack and haven't been doing any interviews since then so we are bea actually done, it could very easily be a shambles. you are going to have grateful to you for coming back and the usual winter pressures, whether talking to us today and particularly it be the flu jab a bigger pressure, acknowledging the role that your staff have played in all of this was as you say, this year, but up staff have played in all of this was upi staff have played in all of this was up ijust staff have played in all of this was up i just wonder everything else that patients will staff have played in all of this was up ijust wonder how staff have played in all of this was up i just wonder how you staff have played in all of this was up ijust wonder how you personally are feeling today. that is kind of wa nt to everything else that patients will want to speak to you about, alongside being central to the you to ask. it is not about me, it is about others who were even closer coronavirus vaccine roll—out. yes, i think what is actually going in the fight but perhaps on their to happen in practice as there is behalf, i can say thank you to the going to be some pics central, i'm told where i am in south london, professional counsellors and there is likely to be two big hubs national health service, distracted much during this year, but they have and they will be reliant on shown us attention. the lord mayor, volunteers, on health care professionals who are returning into practice. they put adverts, the fellow livery companies, embers actually, you can apply to become a of our own company, is a great vaccinator. we are going to need an privilege to work when you have such army of actual people to give this vaccine. i, along with all the other a bonding from so many and the staff gps and primary health care staff, themselves bear this burden and we just hope they can move forwards

are busy doing what it was the day from here even in those connected to job and that will not go away. trying to give this vaccine on top of it, we can't do it alone. saskia jones and jack merritt will be living with it forever. take you in the first lockdown, in the very much. spring, there was a huge concern expressed by doctors about plenty of let's get a check on the weather. stopping reading you guys up with good morning, louise. hi there, non—chanel —related potential chris, good morning, everybody will problems, i wonder how that looks stop if you haven't drawn back your curtains just yet, this stop if you haven't drawn back your curtainsjust yet, this is possibly now. “— the kind of sites that you will be problems, i wonder how that looks now. —— problems not related with seeing today. it is going to be a covid. are they put up with all the rather grey day but it will be quite dry generally across the country was concerns about the virus? not we had some beautiful sunshine we are back to normal in my surgery. yesterday in scotland and that is where we have seen the clearest we are back to normal in my surgery. we do seem to have less as it were disguise through the night. that is had an impact on the feel of the coughs and colds in the older weather. temperatures have fallen population and that is because they down to —5 and have started to come are isolating, but certainly we are back already but nevertheless, look seeing a lot of sniffles and snuffles in the children. i think at the difference, with the blanket of cloud that has been spilling up for a lot of people, they are from the south while those cabbages have stayed well above freezing, 12 finding it challenging the way gps have all had to change, the way we degrees in saint marys in the isles of scilly, a mild start across were, in order to keep the surgery

england and wales but it is quite a say. it is no longer that you can cloudy, grey one for many. light walk in and make an appointment, you winds generally across the country so have to phone, contact them on winds generally across the country so nothing to help shift and break this cloud up at this time of year. online, lots of things being done on we keep some sunshine into the far the telephone. at my practice, we north—east throughout the afternoon. are back to normal. we are seeing temperature is will recover after the chilly start, icy around eight sick patients again, which is good. that is good. absolutely. a quick degrees. generally 9— 12 celsius across the country to do a question about christmas, lots of relatively mild story for the final people having conversations about few days of november. by the end of christmas practicalities. the whole the night we will see that cloud business of hunting, such a human ever ring into the far north—west and some rain arriving here. the instinct, and human emotion when it is someone you have not seen for months, and yet epidemiologist will winds will start to strengthen as tell you it is the worst thing you the rain pushes in and that means could do, potentially vulnerable two bridges up to the west will sit at around 7—8 —— temperatures. relatives, will you be hugging anyone beyond your household at elsewhere are relatively mild night as well stop with all the cloud christmas, if you do not mind the around, whether front continues to personal question absolutely not.” push its way south and east. it will wea ken push its way south and east. it will have a 92—year—old mother and it is weaken as it does so and not produce that much in the way of rent once it really important to keep her sane. i gets into central and southern will not be hugging her. this is one england, but some heavier bursts across scotland, northern ireland, christmas, we hopefully have the north—west england and west of the vaccine coming next christmas things

pennines and as it pushes the will hopefully be back to normal. —— south—east, a band of cloud and it is really important to keep her nuisance rain, unfortunately. top safe. this is one year we have to do temperatures on monday afternoon, again, widely double digits, eight something differently, if you love somebody you should not hug them. to 11. we will see some cool air even in your bubble, keep your distance. arriving watched the system sinks thank you for your advice, always south. a northerly wind is set to nice to have you on the programme. return and that will bring the slight prince to the feel of the talking of christmas, i mentioned on weather, cheekily in sheltered social media we had cracked open one eastern areas as we could seat so we of the chocolate tubs. it fell open? could start off first on tuesday morning with a return to a frost, it was not my fault at all.” particularly across scotland and of the chocolate tubs. it fell open? north—east england as well. that is it was not my fault at all. i had resisted for four days, i thought it worth bearing in mind but on the was pretty good going. i don't know whole, tuesday will be a quiet stake what do you think, louise? and they will be some sunshine around four. the northerly wind could just take that edge of the we are on our third already! they feel of things on exposed coasts. start coming into the supermarket, more cloud out of the west on you can buy two for £7. i put them tuesday, indication of potentially some more wet weather to come. top in the cupboard and... we are not temperatures generally on tuesday of 6- 10 dead. never mind! iwill keep temperatures generally on tuesday of 6— 10 degrees. it doesn't look wednesday onwards as though a low in the cupboard and... we are not dead. never mind! i will keep the wine from myself. -- we are on our pressure would start to dominate the story and as we moved to the end of

the week, it turns more unsettled third. that it also turns noticeably colder we have been watching the rugby, as well. back to you too. —— two. never mind. let's move on to the weather. thanks, louise, see you later on. lots of low cloud around across the every primary school pupil in scotland will be eligible country, it is thick enough for a for free breakfast and lunch all year round if the snp semester, grey, drab and probably is re—elected next year. it would make scotland the first wearing the wrong outfit for today's of the uk nations to implement such a policy. forecast. we sought temperature is deputy first minister, john swinneyjoins us now. falling down to —5 through the night morning to you. morning, chris. how in scotland, incredibly mad soon elsewhere. a little bit of morning to you. morning, chris. how soon could this happen? we plan to brightness pushing into south—west and the cloud taking up the odd spot implement this in 2022, august 2022, of drizzle along the expose case. should the smp return to office in the elections in may of next year. light winds not shifting the cloud we think it is an important around, it will be pretty mild. if contribution to making sure we you are going out to do some tackle a fundamental issue of making exercise through the afternoon it sure that no child is hungry when will be mild. overnight tonight, we they come to school and when they will be mild. overnight tonight, we will start to see the wind strength are in school. —— snp. so that they and in the far north—west and it will bring some rain, some of it can get the maximum benefit. heavy, pushing into north—west scotla nd heavy, pushing into north—west scotland and northern ireland by the are in school. —— snp. so that they can get the maximum benefitlj are in school. —— snp. so that they can get the maximum benefit. i think you are estimating this would cost end of the night. it stays mild.

£230 million, quarter of the billion look at the early morning pounds a year. some are going to temperatures for the end of say, aren't they, that this would november. and mild start on monday include offering free food to the but we are going to see some wet children of millionaires was a bit weather around. there is the low is not very well targeted. what we pressure that is moving in. it is have done with primary 1— three going to bring some wet and increasingly windy weather with it already in scotland is make this as it pushes its way south—east. the provision available and we have done heaviest of the rain through western that because we wanted to remove the stigma associated with free school scotland, through northern ireland, north—west england. as it pushes its meals so the youngest of children at way into midland, central and schools were able to get good southern england, it will weaken off quality, high quality food during the school day to enable them to be substantially. north—westerly wind supported in their learning. when picking up, the temperatures will start to tumble in scotland. you look at the extension of that in elsewhere likely to see double figures. we probably will not feel the primary 4—7, 25% of young people the difference without wind direction until we go through monday are already eligible for free school night into tuesday, as the weather meals in that grouping and we have come to the view that essentially to front dips its way steadily make sure that this policy can have southwards, keeping a lot of cloud out to the west but we will continue to see that colder air plunging down an —— as wide an effect and from the north. some of us across effective effect and remove the stigma associated with applying for scotla nd from the north. some of us across scotland and north—east england could start of cold and frosty on tuesday morning. that is the free school meals, it will make it

available for every child. £230 beginning of december. as we go through the day, easton ellis will million, though, where is the money stay on the cool side but that is coming from? what we do not be where the best of the sunshine is likely to be and further west with spending it on one you are spending the nagging weather frontjust it on this? the budget planning that sitting there keeping some cloud here, it could be pretty grey. we undertake is a government, of course, we have a track record over temperature double digits here but may be along the east coast chile, the last 13 years of upholding our policy priorities of making the choices that are necessary to make six or seven may be along the east coast chile, six or seven sources. may be along the east coast chile, six or seven sources. that is it sure that we can support all of the from me. objectives we want to move forward thank you, louise. enjoy whatever so objectives we want to move forward so when we are making the financial provision as part of the ongoing treats you have hidden away in your cupboard. this is a gorgeous story budget, of which we have got a that came from ireland over the strong and —— strong background. budget, of which we have got a strong and -- strong background. do you know whether money coming from? weekend, you may have seen it on social media. it will come from the public finances of scotland and we will a space—loving six—year—old with brittle bones was the star turn give the priority to making sure on an irish tv show on friday night. that this policy commitment is afforded. it is part of the work adam king told the late late show‘s that we undertake is a government on annual christmas toy special that he feared his condition meant an annual basis were we afford our he couldn't become an astronaut. policy priorities, we make sure we so he'd set his sights on being have resources and we deliver the commitments we support. let's talk a ground controller instead. about the christmas holidays. we had

i'm just going to get your colleague kate forbes, the finance secretary, on the programme into my spaceship. yesterday, talking about the prospect of the christmas break are you ready to launch me? being extended, the school holiday yes. are you feeling comfortable? being extended, the school holiday yes. being extended. can you confirm that ok, ground control, this morning? we are consulting our i am your major tom. i am your representative in the stars. partners about this particular topic are you ready? yes. because there are two issues before twelve, eleven, ten, and after christmas. prior to christmas, some of our schools are nine, eight, seven, still gathering on the 23rd of december and we have had some six, five, four, concern raised with us by staff that three, two, one. they may be dealing with some of the contact tracing work that is lift off! we have lift off! involved right up to christmas day if there has been a particular outbreak in a school, so we're looking at particular issue. when it's coming down. it's coming down will you make a decision on it fora bumpy landing. because people will want to plan, it'sa bumpy landing! wouldn't they? they certainly well it'sa bumpy landing. and we recognise the importance of the consequences of such a decision because obviously people have got to, would have to consider childcare arrangements. we will do that thank you.

quickly. quickly and soon, today, i have landed, i have landed safely, this week? certainly not today but captain, reporting for duty. yes, you have. will be discussing this further with partners in the course of this week and coming to conclusion. we have he is gorgeous. got to take a lot of public health the story didn't end there. because some of the world's advice because fundamentally, the most famous astronauts questions must be driven by public were so moved by his appearance health advice and that relates also that they sent him their own messages of support. tim peake called adam a superstar, to the period after the christmas and new year break where obviously telling him, "we need to get you into mission control". there is going to be a bit more while nasa hailed his "kind heart circulation in the country around and adventurous spirit", saying about christmas time, or there is "we can't wait for him likely to be, and we just want to make sure we have the right public tojoin our team of dreamers". health advice and when is the adam and dad david appropriate time to reconvene our schools in the aftermath of that to join us now from cork. minimise the circulation of the his sister katie and danny as well. virus within the community. let's how are you doing, adam? good. talk about independence, scottish independence, the reason for being, if you like, for your party. can you guarantee, but if the snp win the morning. what has it been like after elections next year, that they will the incredible response you had from the incredible response you had from the show on friday? be another independence referendum? yes, i think there is a

parliamentary majority for such a we may have one or two technical concept, it would happen was up that is the guarantee i would give, to difficulties there. if we can just the people in scotland, if the snp give it another go, can you hear us is elected and we come out in public 0k? it —— party majority, it should happen. give it another go, can you hear us ok? it looks like we may have to try and come back to it. i am going to you will make sure it happens? the explain to you for a moment the crucial thing here whether or not borisjohnson crucial thing here whether or not boris johnson says significance of this tv show, if we crucial thing here whether or not borisjohnson says know crucial thing here whether or not boris johnson says know which crucial thing here whether or not borisjohnson says know which at crucial thing here whether or not boris johnson says know which at the can try and sort out the technicals moment he says he would, you guys push ahead with one anyway and there we will go back. the annual late are some in your party suggesting that might be a good idea and others who say no, i wonder where you fall late toy showed happens every year, they tune in to see the boys on within this government?” who say no, i wonder where you fall within this government? i fall on the side of the democratic argument offer and the personal stories of that if the people of scotland want children who are sometimes on the to decide their own constitutional future, we must be able to do so, receiving end. it is a cultural institution on ireland. what a shame and no uk government should stand in we cannot hear from adam himself. the way of doing that. what happens if they do? what we need to maybe we'll try and do it to my brea kfast we ca n maybe we'll try and do it to my breakfast we can sort it out. we concentrate on is whether the uk lives up to its democratic obligations, that is the most will go for a dance instead. important point and that is what the uk government did in 2012 when they signed up to the edinburgh agreement "dance like no one's watching" — allowing us to have a legitimate that's what one woman from brighton tells herself every referendum in 2014 was not we're now time she takes to a situation in scotland where we the streets to dance.

performing as cara sparkles, have 14 opinion polls in a row she's performed every day during lockdown and has gained demonstrating a clear majority quite a following. support for a yes position, so i charlotte wright has been to meet her. think it would be absolutely it gets a bit more like a rave. he antidemocratic for a uk government to stand in the way of the people of said your daly looked on exercise scotla nd to stand in the way of the people of scotland having the right...|j had to be done? —— who said your understand that that is your argument but to be absolutely clear, are you saying that you would only daily lockdown exercise had to be wa nt are you saying that you would only want a referendum that was sanctioned by the government at westminster or are you willing to dull? entertain the idea of holding one this is kara sparkles, on and without boris johnson entertain the idea of holding one without borisjohnson because '5 permission? what i want to make sure as we have a referendum that can be mission to chisel up. i thought, put into legitimate effect once this will be really annoying because people have voted yes in a i live on my own but a lot of the times i go out on a dance and i go referendum for independence, so that comes about by having an agreed to parties and i see people. i process which we had in 2014, which thought this is going to be tricky worked very effectively, and i think because i'm on my own all the time. the uk government should be held to the uk government should be held to the democratic obligation, the i will put my glittery top on, go down to the beach and dance around. democratic standard of making sure thatis democratic standard of making sure that is the case. that is the why don't i do this every day? fundamental tenet of democratic choice in this society, that if the #we why don't i do this every day? # we will rock down to electric uk government doesn't follow that, then obviously we have got to pressurise them to make sure they do. let's return to the here and avenue #.

she has taken her sound system to now, obviously the constitutional question matters to lots of people the streets and is letting go. but the reason it really matters because of the big question about attracting plenty of attention and where it is best to be governed from and the extent to which that makes a participants. this is the only thing difference to people's lives thatis participants. this is the only thing that is happening. they love it. day—to—day. let's come back to the coronavirus pandemic and your they love the dancing. she is a handling of it as a scottish great dancer. she is the spirit of government. i have just handling of it as a scottish government. i havejust been handling of it as a scottish government. i have just been looking at some statistics and in the week brighton. magic every time you come to november 13, data from the office here. this see is beautiful and the for national statistics and national records scotland suggesting death people are beautiful.” rate in scotland of 50 per million compared with 40 per million in here. this see is beautiful and the people are beautiful. i like it because it is sparkly. how does it england. there has often been a make you feel at the moment? happy! suggestion in some of the write—ups that you guys have handled it better than elsewhere in the uk but the she is spreading the sparkle much debt —— the evidence suggests further than brighton though, she otherwise, doesn't it? when you look films each dance on her phone and upload them to facebook where some at the evidence together and comprehensively, it says that have been viewed and shared to tens coronavirus has been a very, very of thousands times. iam not of thousands times. i am not the best answer in the serious and had a significant effect world, not the best figure anyone at ona serious and had a significant effect on a population and on our society. it bringsjoy our society has been upended by world, not the best figure anyone at it brings joy and happiness to coronavirus. we have taken a series people. it is time for people to of decisions which have been designed to try to reduce the effect sparkle. we can bring the best of

of covid in our society, and if you people out in this time. look over recent weeks back to and isn't that really what life is octoberfor example, look over recent weeks back to october for example, scotland's had all about? about a third less of the cases that have been prevailing in england and wales, so we have been working out approach to try to minimise the effect coronavirus, to reduce the love cara sparkles. number of cases that we are that's all from us for today. experiencing and of course we are breakfast is back seeing some effect of that, the tomorrow from 6.00am. have a good day. bye— bye. lowest of the four nations of the united kingdom. we have taken all of those steps. i'm not going to sit here and say we have absolutely everything right, clearly we have not, that is why we have said they must be open scrutiny of all of the issues, all of the decisions we have taken, but fundamentally, what we have tried to do is protect the people of scotland, to exercise judgement which demonstrates the safest a nd judgement which demonstrates the safest and wisest judgements judgement which demonstrates the safest and wisestjudgements are taken by the government in scotland on behalf of the people of our country. thanks for talking to us, this is bbc news, i'm ben brown.
